Pub Royale

On the Grid : Pub Royale

"Taking the place of Ukrainian Village/Wicker Park’s beloved SmallBar, Pub Royale is a breath of fresh air to an avenue filled with so-so sports bars with generally sub-par food. Fancy a spot of curry? We’ve found your stop. Pub Royale's hearty contemporary english-style pub food (read heavy Indian spices) and massive rotating tap list is certain to send you on your way, perfectly full. Might we suggest the Gobi Manchurian (crispy cauliflower) or the Mussels + Naan? Splendid!" - Potluck Creative

Where To Go For An Early-In-The-Game Date

"Eating at Pub Royale in Wicker Park can be a challenge. It’s busy, and the hosts aren’t particularly helpful. Luckily, they accept reservations, and you should definitely make one if you don’t want to fight for seats. At the very least, strolling past the people waiting in line to claim your table will make you feel like you have your sh*t together. Once you’re seated, you can look forward to excellent Indian-inspired food - get the salt cod samosas and lamb dumplings, for sure." - adrian kane

"You might want this date to be over after a round of drinks, but if your date passes the normal-person Turing test, you can eat a great meal at Pub Royale in Wicker Park. The British and Indian menu means you can drink a specialty Pimm’s Cup, and get dishes like butter chicken and gobi manchurian. Or, you can have exactly one turmeric daiquiri, and “remember” you have a really early morning tomorrow." - josh barnett, sam faye
